The Springfield, Lakemore Youth Services provides alternative rehabilitation for juveniles who have been arrested by local police. This program diverts teens from the Juvenile Court System and provides accountability and assistance to the teens and their parents. This is a cooperative effort between the youth, parents and Springfield, Lakemore Youth Services staff. Any juvenile who lives in Springfield Township or the Village of Lakemore who becomes involved with the police is eligible for referral. Walk-ins are also considered when parents need help providing the proper information to their child. All juveniles are placed on a six month contract that is closely monitored and given effective logical consequences to abide. Other programs that are provided are: 6 hour Mandatory Parent/Student Educational Groups, Tobacco Education Class, Restorative Justice Program, and the Illusions Teen Program.
